Some of the times you post seem a bit fast for the Intel chip. Did you use 4 mb
of hash, and use the time to complete the full 9 ply search. Your 450mhz time of
1:58 is very close to Ed's time of 1:44 for his 450mhz AMD K6-2 chip. If I use
28mb of hash on my computer. I do a 9 ply search over 1 min faster then I do
using 4mb. One of the reasons 28mb is faster is you do not find the key move
Nxg2 so the program does not hang on that move for a long time, checking out the
move to make sure it is good. Now at 60mb Hash I find the key move Nxg2 and it
take me about 1 min longer to do 9 plys over 28mb hash and about the same as 4mb
hash.
